题目内容
18.____ of the land in that district ____ covered with trees and grass.( )A. | Two fifth; is | B. | Two fifth; are | C. | Two fifths; is | D. | Two fifths; are |
分析 那个地区五分之二的土地被树木和草覆盖着.
解答 答案:C 第一个空缺处考查了分数的用法:即分母用序数词,分子用基数词表示,当分子超过1,分母要加s,五分之二即为:two fifths;这里的分数是用来修饰land这一不可数名词的,所以谓语动词应为它的第三人称单数is;故选C
点评 本题考查了英语中的主谓一致.做此类题时,首先要知道主语表示的是单数还是复数形式,尤其要注意:当不可数名词做主语时,谓语动词要使用它的第三人称单数形式.
